Consenescere: Happy Holidays & NYC Fun


Happy Holidays! Christmas was great this year and I hope you all had a great holiday as well.  Oh, and Happy New Year! It's 2015!!! It's crazy how fast this year has gone by and just like everyone else I hope, I'm excited for a new year to begin. 

I recently went to New York City once again because I live so close by, and went to go see the Christmas Spectacular at the Radio City Music Hall, ice skate at Bryant Park, and eat dinner at The View restaurant at the Marriott Hotel in Times Square. It was a super busy day and the events kind of came together rather quickly because I wasn't too sure what I was doing but I had fun nonetheless. I took some pictures with my new camera that I got for Christmas (thanks bro!) and I'm still testing it out so bare with these pics lol!

August 2014 Ipsy Glam Bag: My First Ever Ipsy Bag!!!


Hello everyone! Today, I am super super excited to talk about my first ever Ipsy Glam Bag! If you don't know what Ipsy is it is a beauty subscription box that has up to 5 items of deluxe beauty samples based off your beauty quiz that you take once you sign up for the box. This box is $10 a month with free shipping and depending on your state/country, you may get taxed. 

I had been wanting to be subscribed to Ipsy Glam bag ever since I first heard about it which was a while ago. I love to watch Ipsy Glam Bag unboxings on Youtube and I was always jealous of the amazing samples they received. So this year I decided to bite the bullet and shell out the $10 a month for this beauty bag. 

When you sign up you will be put on the waiting list unless you do a series of tasks that will take you off it. Basically, I recommended someone to get an account on Ipsy and I got enough Ipsy points to get off the waiting list and get my August Glam Bag. Once you're off, Ipsy will charge $10 to your bank account every first of the month. So on the first of August I was billed and then by August 11th my bag shipped.

Every month the Ipsy Glam Bag is based off of a theme. The theme for this month is "Beauty Schooled". I love the theme for this month because not only is it accurate but it's also cutely corny as well. 

The Ipsy Glam Bag came in this cute white and orange polka dotted circular pencil case pouch. It reminds me so much of my middle school and high school days. I mean I still do have a pencil case in college but it isn't as cute as this...wait well I lied it is Totoro (which cost me $18 in Disney World!) but it's still just nostalgic. 


The bag came with five beauty items and first impressions wise, I'm super happy with what I got in the bag because these are all things that I would have tried out on my own. For these posts, I'll talk about each item I received and give my own mini review on them.


So let's delve into this Glam Bag!
